There are gaps here, but there in other places:
- the gap between what a protocol needs and what is in the spec
        if HBH isn’t needed and can’t be implemented, remove them
        if HBH is needed, then we need to find a way to have the requirement 
mean something

A similar problem exists with fragmentation. NIMBYisnm won’t fix it, nor will 
operator declarations, nor false security declarations.

I don’t have a problem with fixing the STANDARD. I have a problem with an 
end-run in ops.
